# setting up client to use

# Instead of using Python and boto can use AWS CLI which I have downloaded and setup too but
# its just a command line sort of interface so ideally IDE need to be used I would think to save scripts etc
# is webstorm used for this sort of thing? Costs money but relatively cheap.
